Bury My Bones but Keep My Words: African Tales for Retelling

By Tony Fairman

Book Overview

African storytellers have shared eerie, humorous, and spellbinding tales for generations. Tony Fairman heard these stories first-hand, and his retellings bring Africa to vivid life. Deliciously lively writing . . . Fresh, funny, and almost audible.--Kirkus Reviews, pointered review. A NCSS/CBC Notable Children's Trade Book in the Field of Social Studies.
